Flutecrafter, I question your discernment.

It's not fear... it's politics and the quest for religious political power. As the article states,

It's hard for churches to carve out a congregation with so much competition. So some pastors establish their credentials by accusing children of witchcraft.
Behold - the evils of organized religion.

and they get away with it due to fear on the part of the people.
If they knew who they were in Christ, and understood that they didn't have
to be afraid of witches, they would tell those so called pastors where to go.
Their fear, understandable though it is, enables the Jackels that are causing
this to happen.

God didn't condemn witches to death and command that his people not practice such things because it's no big deal. There is a side to this that I think we in the West poo poo because we're philosophical skeptics. The Bible mentions a woman who was a medium who brought her masters much money. This woman followed the Apostles and an actual spirit was cast out of her. This stuff is for real. However, in the case of these children it's a lying accusation.

Flutecrafter... have you ever encountered a witch before?

click on a user's name, then on the dropdown, click on their homepage. Not everyone has a homepage.

It's also in the contact portion of the user profile.

But clicking on the username on a post and using the drop down menu is the fastest/easiest way.
